Hi, I have a dr appt for my 13 week old daughter but wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this. She's my second child and it's a first for us. She has one white pimple on her bottom area with no rash. She's not bothered by it and it's not changing in size and shape. Haven't changed her soaps, wipes, diapers or creams. Anyone experience this before?

My oldest got a rash at about 20 months that started as one white head bump on her bottom. It went from one to five then ten and then when I asked the pediatrician about it she said it was folliculitis. I guess it was an infected hair follicle that had spread. She said to ask for Calmoseptine from my pharmacy (I guess it's technically over the counter but they don't keep it on the shelves you have to ask for it) and it cleared it right up. Not sure if that's what your LO has. Yours could be as simple as a pimple but just watch for more bumps.
